What does it take? Crimes of the Vatican by their own admission since 1988.
Human Rights crimes, crimes against women and children, crimes against indigenous people, kidnapping, child trafficking, slavery, profiteering; abuse, apologize and seek forgiveness while claiming to be the appointed saviours of humanity. Nothing more than a protected cartel profiting from a global fraud derived from claiming to be a benefit to society when they are incapable of providing safety for the vulnerable among us. Generations of this brings us to a point whereby the generational slavery of children is considered to be in the child's best interests and for the humanity's benefit. Instead we get insanity via endless, unmanaged and unregulated criminal Christianity.
A snapshot of the
numbers taken in 2010 indicates a potential 29 million child victims at that time.
